ReStructure Mix Update (1/28/25):”Comanchero” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Comanchero

ReStructure Mix Update (1/28/25):”Comanchero” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Comanchero

Comanchero is an Italian-house project which brings a classic dance track from 1984 titled “Comancero” and was released under the title Raggio Di Luna. This 1989 release takes the original into the bass-driven house arena where the track is sped up yet retains the magic of the original melody with enhanced energy. Produced by Mario Bortoletto and Sergio Dall'Ora - this one gives way to a whole new power for the song and also a lift into the late 80’s where house music had formed its roots and stamped its sound on many covers and remakes. A great Italian dance production and a sound which labels the 80s and early 90s a dance haven.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Comanchero” and reworked the house beats into a new ReStructure Mix. I have focused on the consistency of the flow of energy using the tom-tom effects as a foundation this time around.

ReStructure Mix Update (1/27/25):”Mighty Fine” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Peter Jacques Band

ReStructure Mix Update (1/27/25):”Mighty Fine” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Peter Jacques Band

PeterJacques Band is a disco session from producer Jacques Fred Petrus and arranger Mauro Malavasi. Their first project titled “Fire Night Dance” from 1978 was an innovative display of electronic disco music breaking the standard mold and arrangements. Many of their projects to follow also inherited the attributes - including Macho, Caprice, Change, Rudy,  B.B. and Q Band, Revanche, High Fashion, Zinc and Midnight Gang - as well as productions with Ritchie Family. “Mighty Fine” is from their 1980 project titled “Welcome Back” and follows the sound created for their session project of the time period titled Change. More of a funk-disco experience with slick guitar work and again the fantastic vocal arrangements which were led by Luther Vandoss.

I have taken the album version of “Mighty Fine” and squeezed out much of the groove and funk for this ReStructure Mix. The outline is similar with a few re-edits and loops to add some lasting rhythm and a couple of new breaks.

ReStructure Mix Update (1/22/25):”In Motion” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Freda Payne

ReStructure Mix Update (1/22/25):”In Motion” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Freda Payne

Freda Payne is a soul vocalist whose recording career began in 1963 and moved throughout the 70’s where her big hit titled “Band Of Gold” from 1970 made her a household name. “In Motion” is a 1982 release produced by Leon and Edmund Sylvers (of The Sylvers). This electronic dance/funk track is an echo of the early 80’s sound which was led by Evelyn King, Meloba Moore and O’Brian/ A nice airy sound where the groove was the emphasis and bass guitars plucked out the rhythm. “In Motion” gives Freda another chance to present her talent in a new arena during a long and many years of dedication to her music.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental versions of “In Motion” and created a new ReStructure Mix for this track. More of the bass guitars are showcased with some new edits and loops and new breaks give the song a new balance.

ReStructure Mix Update (1/21/25):”Mission” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Motive 8

ReStructure Mix Update (1/21/25):”Mission” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Motive 8

Motive 8 is Steve Rodway along with Angie Brown on the diva end. “Mission” is their 1991 single which blasts out the formula of the early 90’s in an explosive package. The kick beats here are not tame. A full-force energy of techno and Euro-house unite here with a dreamy feel in areas of the track. One of the dance-rap pieces which solidify the dance force needs and also the impact that is needed for this period of unification.

I have taken the 12’ version of “Mission” and relaunched the track into a new ReStructure Mix with more of the beats and rhythm pieces to accentuate it. A new intro gives way to the original hard hitting beats and a longer fade is provided.

ReStructure Mix Update (1/19/25):”More Than A Memory” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Anita Pointer

 

ReStructure Mix Update (1/19/25):”More Than A Memory” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Anita Pointer

Anita Pointer is the second to the eldest of the Pointer Sisters trio and takes a moment to present a solo project along with producer Naratha Michael Walden. From her project titled “Love For What It Is” from 1987 this single echoes the pop-dance beauty of the repertoire which they played out in the synth-pop 80’s. “More Than A Memory” is a track asking a new romantic involvement to please feel deeper and love deeper so that the bond can be strong and survive. It is a wonderful performance from Anita and she displays the light emotion necessary to bring a nice essence to this song. 

I have taken the 12” West Coast vocal and instrumental of “More Than A Memory” and have placed it into the ReStructure Mix realm. More drum beats from the original are used to bang out the new breaks and arrangement of this new remix.
